‘ Citdsors 

The editor of this column steps aside this week to give place to the 
following “Foar Minute Essay” by Dr. Frank Crane, and to commend it to 
all readers as well worthy of adoption: 

A good dose of Outdoors would cure almost anything. 

Quit wearitg a hat and let your hair Outdoors, for that bald spot 

Go barefoot, and your feet will slip back ten years 

Take off:your clothes and lie on the sand in the sun, acquire a rich tan, 
and you will become healthy as a savage 

Go Outdoors and find a appetite. It’s out there somewhere. 

Go Outdoors and -get rid of Nerves. They live in the house 

Other rats and. mice that infest houses are Dyspepsia, Constipation, | 
Liver Complaint, Peplessness’ and Insomnia. 

Not only Bodily Ailments, but all other’ kinds of plagues and nuisances | 
are house creatures, 

Creeds were all made in stuffy rooms. Religion, faith, hope, Jove, and 
courage inhabit the woods-and meadows, sail the seas, and seek wind nd | 
sun, \ 

Jesus taughi Outdoors. Hcclesiastical Councils are held behind ‘closed | 
doors. The decline of religion is traceable from the Sermon on the Mount 
fm the asphyxiating Meeting-House. ‘ 

Education ought to be Outdoors. My favorite dream is the University of | 
Outdoors, where pupils go shoeless and hacless and learn under the stars. 
p This University would teach the child how to be as healthy as a panther, 
~ And healthy bodies would obyiate most neurasihenic intellectual vagaries. 

Where but Ouldoors can you learn Botany, Geology, Astronomy, and the 

like. Real Science lives Outdoors, as mtch as Leap-Frog. 
Play Outside, Prisoner's Base is -better than Whist. 
Sets Tyen kissing is betier Outdoors. Copenhagen is much betier for your 


— general system than twosing on the parlor sofa. When you chase a girl half , 
. ° a mile to kiss her you realize what real Kissing is. 
Eating is better Outdoors, A horse is healthier than a man because 
‘horse has-to walk ‘after-every bite of grass he gets.

Calgary.—This year’s two success-

a tremendous impetus to the devel-

that “transporjation by

He attributed the slow adoption of |

Equality of status among nations,

SAMUEL’S FAREWELL 


Golden Text: Thy loving kindness |

walked in Thy truth—-Psalm 26.3. 
Lesson: 1 Samuel 12. 


Devotional Reading: Psalm 26.1-8. 


Explanations and Comments 
eis 3 
verses 1-5.—In a solemn address in 
which he resigned his office as judge, 
though retaining that of 
|Samuel stood before his people and 
jannuonced that he had done their bid- 
ding in giving them a king. “And now, 
behold, the king walketh before you; 


and I am old and grayheaded; and, be- | 


hold, my sons are with you.” Various 
explanations may be given for this re- 
mark about his sons; by mentioning 
his age and his song he referred to 
the reasons given by the people for 
demanding a king (1 Sam. 8.5); the 
sons were mature men and they proy- 
;ed that their father was of advanced 
;age; he was about to abdicate his | 
|position as judge, and he _ bespoke 
their kind treatment for his sons, who 
; had been his assistants, “And L have 
| walked before you from my youth un- 
|to this day.” See 1 Sam. 2.18, when 
his service first began. Buddee sug 
|gests that his thought here was: The 
king you will find out later, but me 
|you haye known well for a.long time

\Jehoyah and Saul, his anointed, as)

or oppressed, or of whom he had taken | 
a bribe. “Whose ox or whose ass have 
\f taken?” is his question. These were 
\the most valued possessions of the 
| people, who were farmersgasd shep

offered him as judge to induce. him to 
acquit a murderer. 

| Compare Paul’s assertions of 
| blamelessness in his farewell address 
\to the Ephesian elders’ at Miletas, |. 
Acts 20,17-27. The pcople emphatic- 
ally testified that Samuel's record was 
stainless, and he reminded them that 
God was their witness. —

“For at the age of thirty,” says

tician, “the value of the ma: who will 
earn $2,500 a year as a maximum is 
approximately $31,000. 

“This is taking into consideration 
the present worth of the average 
gross, earnings of men of his age and 
incothe class, and allowing about 
$12,000 for the present worth of his 
personal expenses during the same 
period. 

Dr. Dubin finds that up to his 
elghteenth birthday a boy in the 
family in the $2,500 annual income 
class had a certain economic value 
even before he began to work and 
earn money. It cost $7,238, exclusive 
of the cost of education, which is 
usually borne by the state or the city, 
to rear a boy to the oge of 18 years. 
The capitalized value of the net fu- 
ture earnings of such a boy was 
$28,654, 

He found that at birth a boy fn this 
class had a value of $9,333. which in- 
creased a trifle over a thousand dol- 
lars when he reached one year. 


for he hag built his nest on the top of

ham Palace probably gave rise to the 
report. Next, Grand Duchess Olga, 
daughter. of the Czar of Russia, be- 
came the candidate—probably based 
on the fact that the Prince and the 
Grand Duchess played together as 
children. L 

The prince 1ow often laughs’ at his 
forn.er “tea-cup betretbals” as much 
as he does at all of tfe latest ones 
that are heaped upon him, 

The feeling is growing in England 
that the Prince will ultimately turn 
to the strong solid stock of his own 


country for a wife. This type of mar- | 


riage by the Prince would be the 
most popular he could make, for the 
people of England look upon him as 
an excellent type of young English- 
man anti they would like their future 
queen to be just as typically English,

and that amount has necessarily been 
|inereased by those arriving since. 
These people will all be most valuable 
jassets in the development of the 
country and in time will become use- 
| ful and prosperous citizens.” 

Mr. Robb pointed out that the 
efforts of the organization had been 
| directed upon family settlemént work 
ag a considerable degree and that this 
\year it had been successful in secur- 
ing both from the old land and the 
United States, some of the finest 
type of settlers ever brought to Can- 
ada, He stated that the Canadian 
National Railways had been able to 
bring in a greatly increased number of 
land settlers from Denmark, Holland 
as well as from Britain and the 
States. The number from Denmark 
alone had increased nearly three 
times over that of last year, he said. 

Attention was drawn by Mr. Robb 

to the new undertaking upon which 
| the Canadian National Railways are 
,embarking this year, the development 
of markets abroad for the produce of 
the.farm. To stimulate this and to 
interest the farmers: directly in this 
phase of agriculture, he stated the 
company is organizating marketing 
tours to Europe, the first to leave next 
January. These are being provided at 
/a minimum cost and the farmers will 
| be under the direction of an expert 
| marketing guide. 
The introduction of new capital to 
| Canada is also receiving the attention 
|of his organization, Mr. Robb declar- 
ied, and a department of natural re- 
' sources has been opened in London 
|} under the charge of a thoroughly com- 
petent Canadian., , f 

Speaking of recent complaints that 
more people are being brought into 
the country than can readily be ab- 
| sorbed in farm employment, Mr. 
| Robb said: 

“I can, of course, speak only for the 
| Canadian National” Railways, as far 
as our colonization department is con- 
‘cerned, no such situation exists. Not 
| only have we been able to absorb 
}all the settlers we have brought in,

Canada’s Future Assured 
Hon. W. R. Motherwell, Canadian 
‘minister of agriculture, in a recent 
address stated that “Canada is now 
ready and able to be mindful of the 
injunction to count her blessings in- 
stead of reviewing any disadvan- 
tages.” From coast to coast, he de- 
clared, men are now looking for the 
optimistic viewpoint, finding it and 


ation of its natural resources.

Using Sun and Sea 


Gas Buoys For Protection Of Shipping 
Automatically Lighted . 

Thousands of dollars are saved 
yearly by means of the so-called sun 
valve which automatically lights the 
lamps on gas buoys and in lighthouses 
fdy the protection of shipping. It 
saves employing many men for the 
task and is certain of operation. It is 
so adjusted that when darkness falls, 
the flow of acetylene gas stored in a 
large container, is increased, Daylight 
turns the gas nearly off, so that ik 
burns low durirg the: bright hours. 
Another form of buoy utilizes the ac- 
tion of the waves to operate a pump. 
which in turn affords water for run- 
ning a small turbine to supply elec: 
tricity for iluminating thé light. Fog 
hornsgor moaning bvoys are also 
rigged to work without the aid of 
man. Compressed air is furnished by 
means of a pump actuated by the 
waves. The only attention required 
is an occasional oiling. A lightship on 
the west coast of Scotland has no 
crew. Its light burns without care and 
when the vessel rolls a bel strikes. 
Dutch engineers have also harnessed 
the sea to help strengthen the dikes. 
Jetties are built of reeds, running 
outward from the embankments. 
These gradually become covered with 
sand, owing to the action of the 
waves, and by constructing successive 
jetties after others have become cov- 
ered, a strong reinforcement for the

Want Increased Annual Grant 


Saskatchewan Livestock Board Ap- 
proach Provincial Government 

An inerease of $5,000 in the annual 
grant from the provincial government 
will be asked by the Saskatchewan 
Livestock Board, it was decided at a 
meeting held in the Legislative bulid- 
ings, Regina, Hon, C, M, Hamilton, 
provincial minister of agriculture, 
took the matter into consideration 
after hearing D. T. Elderkin. manager 
of the Regina exhibition, and R. W. 
Johns, manager of the Saskatoon ex- 
hibition, speak in support of the ap- 
plication. ‘The board at present re- 
celves a-grant of $10,000. In explain- 
ing the uses to which the extra $5.000 
would be put it was stated that $1,000 
would be used for the board’s ex- 
penses and the remaining $4,000 
would be divided equally between 
Regina and Saskatoon winter fairs. 
The $10,000 grant has in the plist been * 
split equally between Regina and Sas- 
katoon: winter fairs. mr 

That the winter fairs are essential 
to the development of the livestock 
and poultry industry of the province 
was stated in the resolution sanction- 
ing the request to.the government 
which also added that the progress 
of the winter fairs is being handi- 
capped by the lack of funds. 

Both Mr. Elderkin and ‘Mr. Jolins, 
in their statements indicated phat the 
winter fairs had been run at a loss 
but added that they had an important 
part to play in the development of 
the livestock industry in the province. 

It was explained that’ the $1,000 
sought for the expenses of the board 
includéd $500 in cohnectiin with the 
proposal to send a livestock judging 
team, consisting of five boys, to the 
Royal Fair at Toronto. 

The various stock selection commit- 
tees were appointed in connection 
with the Royal winter show at Tor- 
onto and the International at Chicago.

<a that feeling engendered | 


by the War is dying down is forth-}- 


‘jcoming from the fact that a German 


film illustrating the expleits of the 
Emden is being shown in London} 


jby an English firm who are best | 


knéwn as the distributors of the 
British war films “Ypres” and 
“Mons.” Some’ people consider that 
they have.taken a bold step in 
booking his wholly German war 
picture, but the film is so good and 
80 impartial that there is no reason 
why British audiences should not 
welcome it on its merits. 

The story begins with the Em 
den‘s departure from Tsingtau at ghe | 
outbreak of war, and winds up with 
a remarkably vivid portrayal of her 
final battle with H.M.S. Sydney, of 
Cocos Island. It is as restrained and | 
as fair as any of the British-war films, 
and has a stronger narrative force 
than any except that of Zeebrugge. 
without any unnecessary exaggeration 
of the glory or of the horrors of actual 
fighting, the War is shown from th» 
angle of the crew of the German 
raider, and particularly from that of | 
one young officer, a reservist in busi- 
ness at Tsingtau, who meets his own 
wife as a passenger on one of the 
captured British steamers, is put in 
command of the captured British 
crews, and eventually dies during the | 
bombardment by the Sydney, 

Enough glimpses of her various 
exploits are shown to give one a 
pretty good idea of her touch-and-go | 
career, and the co-operation of the | 
German admiralty has ensured an 
authentic naval atmosphere. One 
episode is omitt#d. hat is the in- 
terval during the Cocos Battle when | 
the Sydney, seeing the Emden hope-| 
jlessly stranded, went off to capture | 
{her coal tender, the Buresk. before 
}returning to enforce on Captain Von 
|Muller an honorable surrender. The 
British are treated quite fairly; | 
there*’is no “hate” anywher in the} 
picture.-London Correspondence in |

For Either the Newborn Babe. or 


pressure tires. Jolts and vibrations 
disappear. Stretches of rough going 
cannot disturb you or harm the mech- 
anism and well-built structure of your 
car. 
If it is slippery and muddy underfoot, 
Gum-Dipped Tires, having double the 
road contact, cling to the road and hold 
the car unwaveringly to a true, straight 
course. On grades there is extra tract- 
ion; at sharp curves or in quick non 
you will have perfect control of 
and brake. Skidding is almost eo 
possible. 
Through the development of the ex- 
clusive Gum-Dipping process, Fire- 
stone has tremendously increased tire 
mileage in balloon tires. ‘This insulates 
and impregnates every fibre of every 
cord with rubber, reduces internal heat 
and friction and delivers thousands of 
extra miles with added comfort and 
safety. 
Ask any Firestone Dealer to. show you 
the structure of Balloon Gum-Dipped 
Tires and to tell you their advantages.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who was |

the encouragement of budding story- 
tellers. Though he had a short story 
published in “Chamber's Journal” — | 
first encourager of so many famous | 
| writers when only 19, herwrote for 
three years after that without an ac- 
ceptance, and his early books brought 
but a small financlal return, During

| career, indeed, he never made more
